The problem with previous code was it rounded values in wrong
place and produced wrong baud rate in some cases.

The USART device provides a fractional baud rate generator to get a more
accurate baud rate. It can be used only when the USART is configured in
'normal mode' and this feature is not available on AT91RM9200 SoC.

With SAMA5D2, the UART has hw timeout but the offset of the register to
define this value is not the same as the one for USART.
When using the new UART, the value of this register was 0 so we never
get timeout irqs. It involves that when using DMA, we were stuck until
the execution of the dma callback which happens when a buffer is full
(so after receiving 2048 bytes).

Depending on the hardware, TX and RX FIFOs may be available. The RX
FIFO can avoid receive overruns, especially when DMA transfers are
not used to read data from the Receive Holding Register. For heavy
system load, The CPU is likely not be able to fetch data fast enough
from the RHR.
In addition, the RX FIFO can supersede the DMA/PDC to control the RTS
line when the Hardware Handshaking mode is enabled. Two thresholds
are to be set for that purpose:
- When the number of data in the RX FIFO crosses and becomes lower
than or equal to the low threshold, the RTS line is set to low
level: the remote peer is requested to send data.
- When the number of data in the RX FIFO crosses and becomes greater
than or equal to the high threshold, the RTS line is set to high
level: the remote peer should stop sending new data.
- low threshold <= high threshold
Once these two thresholds are set properly, this new feature is
enabled by setting the FIFO RTS Control bit of the FIFO Mode Register.
FIFOs also introduce a new multiple data mode: the USART works either
in multiple data mode or in single data (legacy) mode.
If MODE9 bit is set into the Mode Register or if USMODE is set to
either LIN_MASTER, LIN_SLAVE or LON_MODE, FIFOs operate in single
data mode. Otherwise, they operate in multiple data mode.
In this new multiple data mode, accesses to the Receive Holding
Register or Transmit Holding Register slightly change.
Since this driver implements neither the 9bit data feature (MODE9 bit
set into the Mode Register) nor LIN modes, the USART works in
multiple data mode whenever FIFOs are available and enabled. We also
assume that data are 8bit wide.
In single data mode, 32bit access CAN be used to read a single data
from RHR or write a single data into THR.
However in multiple data mode, a 32bit access to RHR now allows us to
read four consecutive data from RX FIFO. Also a 32bit access to THR
now allows to write four consecutive data into TX FIFO. So we MUST
use 8bit access whenever only one data have to be read/written at a
time.

This patch updates macro definitions in atmel_serial.h to fit the
80 column rule.
Please note that some deprecated comments such as "[AT91SAM9261 only]"
are removed as the corresponding bits also exist in some later chips.

On older SoC, the "name" field is not filled in the register map.
Fix the way to figure out if the serial port is an uart or an usart for these
older products (with corresponding properties).

Currently early kernel messages, i.e., those from uncompression, go to the
debugging UART. And if it is enabled in the platform configuration, but
not initialized by the bootloader, the machine hangs, waiting for UART
status change. Besides, having those messages on another UART - typically
the console UART - may be preferrable. This patch allows selecting the
UART in kernel configuration.
